I believe I’ve traced this one down completely now.  

I’m currently waiting for the kernel packages to finish rebuilding on my build 
box so I can verify the fix.

Inspection of my ZX2000’s SAL crash logs show that the machine went down from a 
recoverable MCA (Cache poisoning).  The Wheezy kernel does not have the MCA 
recovery paths compiled in, but rather, compiled as module.  If the system is 
throwing the MCA early enough, it has no chance of recovery because of this.

All of the functional kernel configs Peter Chubb mentioned have the MCA 
Recovery code path linked in.

I’m building a kernel package set with MCA recovery linked in and will verify 
on my zx2000.  If this fixes it, I’ll post a patch to this bug.

Regards,
Chris.
